World Affairs

---

As an outsider, 'looking in', having a limited ability in the workings of politics, sharemarkets,portfolios, economic climate,trade, etc., I am, for the first time in my life, PROUD to be financially POOR! Why? You may well ask!

Oh, don't get me wrong, I like to 'feather my nest' along with anyone else. I love fabrics, nothing pleases me more than buying table linen.
Or a new quilt cover. Once I aquire these things, I give away my 'used' linen, so everyone has a share.

But this is not how the world works, is it? I mean, should I cash a cheque postdated, ie; {not enough money in my bank account}, the Bank will do one of two things;

1] Dishonour the cheque.

2} Honour the cheque and then charge me interest.

I might have been a customer for over 25 years, yet that makes no difference to the Bank. I am simply one number, faceless, nameless.
Upon reading the state of affairs, I have come to the conclusion that we all are victims of Corporate GREED. A few years ago, house prices here in Perth, Western Australia escalated so much that houses in our Capital City, Sydney,
were cheaper than Perth. The system urged us to buy second properties. Lots of people signed up-NOT ME! I had a feeling this was all an illusion.
Which proved to be true. Greed again!

Now we are at the mercy of Global Governments, scratching their heads, looking for a solution.
They talk of millions of dollars to be injected into their own countries. Yet, these same countries have sagging education and healthcare facilities. So where are the millions of dollars coming from?

Do you know what? I don't care! This is not my problem!Remember I am not rich. In fact, I am proud to be poor.According to the world Banks, I am just one number, faceless, nameless........
